Night 58: F31-40 Hallway

[bodhiandspirit]

Something horrible was going to happen. Rita was sure of it. She didn't know what, but receiving an unknown injection from an army that already had a reputation for screwing around with people definitely wasn't good news. And if the things she read on the bulletin that day were to be believed, she had every reason to feel uneasy

Whatever it was "Code 1-8" was supposed to mean, Donna hadn't bothered over thinking about. She'd had more important matters to address - ones that were much more personal. For starters, the Doctor had invited himself over, so before he got there, she had to be sure to be prepared. Wearing her proper clothes and keeping his specs nice and secure until she was sure he had the right leverage. She'd honestly be happy with just the ring getting traded back to her, but there was always the chance that he might try to sweeten the deal. If she held out, that was

Though announcements passed between the Radio and Intercom alike, the only responses given to the breaks in silence was a shaking torchlight. As soon as the lights had fallen, Donna had dived for the torch beneath her pillow and flicked it on before her face. Since then she had been sitting, back pressed to the wall at the head of her bed as she kept the light before her - close enough that a part of her was always touching the beam that trembled with her shaking hands.

She wasn't able to explain the reason why she'd needed the light, or really why she'd withdrawn against the darkness at all. She knew she wasn't scared of the dark. That she'd actually faced before in the form of invisible alien shadows. Though she would have admitted at the time that the Vashta Nerwhatchamacallits might have been enough to give her some nightmares, the aftermath of it all hadn't left her with any lingering fears of either them or the dark. Even if the Doctor had said that there was a reason to, you know, be a little more careful in dark alleyways

Aaaaaaaaaagh, I'm so sorry. orz

F32, F32...

F38, F37..... F35, 34, 33-and here it was! F32! He reached for the knob and turned it, pushing into the room with a "Sorry!" and half doubting he'd find her there at all. "Are you-..."

The half-started question died on his lips. He wasn't sure if she'd still be here or if she would have gone off by herself in a huff since he hadn't arrived at her door promptly after it had unlocked, but he hadn't at all expected to find her pressed against the wall, clutching her flashlight. A frown started to form, brows drawn in confusion, and the intended question changed: "-alright?"

Donna was lucky she was so proud. Otherwise the moment the door had opened she might have let out a scream, and wouldn't that have been something to explain to the person responsible for her opening door? Instead of screaming, she swallowed the desire and shot the torch light to the doorway, caring little for whether or not she blinded the person.

So he'd finally come.

"Where the hell have you been?!" she shouted angrily, venting since she needed something to try and focus on. Anything that wouldn't return her back to sitting rigid on her bed. Yelling at the Doctor had always been good for easing her nerves, and since it was the Doctor, she knew there really shouldn't be a reason for her to act that way anymore. Despite that, she remained in place, trying to keep the light steady on him and watching with eyes she did not realize were opened wide.

To say Kairi was afraid for her roommate was an understatement. She watched with sad eyes as the other redhead fled from the room, refusing to sit in silence and simply allow whatever fate that would fall upon her happen in solitude. She couldn't help but envy the girl's strength in such a situation. What was going to happen to her? She was able to move freely, however, so that gave her reason to believe she at least wasn't going to get experimented on, so that was always a plus. Still, it didn't stop the princess from worrying.

Sighing, Kairi collected her things (sword, flashlight.) and headed out of the room, heading towards the Recreational Hallway. She hadn't been able to reply to Sora's final message due to sleeping, so she'd simply have to wing it. Or, perhaps, sneak across the Rec field's wall and check on the other side of the doors. That could always work too, right?
